I have  following sample  XML event where I want to extract specific value for a child tag . Ex when <Order fact> value is 'Place' then extract <Orderupdatevalue> which is false

<OrderUpdateField>
     <OrderFacts>Place</OrderFacts>
     <OrderDataType>String</OrderDataType>
      <OrderUpdateValue>False</OrderUpdateValue>
     <OrderFacts>Number</OrderFacts>
     <OrderDataType>Integer</OrderDataType>
     <OrderUpdateValue>1</OrderUpdateValue>
     <OrderFacts>Location</OrderFacts>
    <OrderDataType>String</OrderDataType>

@Vkeshar 

It looks like you need the first value from multivalued data.

Can you please try this?

YOUR_SEARCH | spath
| eval OrderFacts=mvindex('OrderUpdateField.OrderFacts',0), OrderUpdateValue=mvindex('OrderUpdateField.OrderUpdateValue',0)
| table OrderFacts OrderUpdateValue

My Sample Search :

| makeresults | eval _raw="<OrderUpdateField>
     <OrderFacts>Place</OrderFacts>
     <OrderDataType>String</OrderDataType>
      <OrderUpdateValue>False</OrderUpdateValue>
     <OrderFacts>Number</OrderFacts>
     <OrderDataType>Integer</OrderDataType>
     <OrderUpdateValue>1</OrderUpdateValue>
     <OrderFacts>Location</OrderFacts>
    <OrderDataType>String</OrderDataType>
    <OrderUpdateValue>Earth</OrderUpdateValue>
</OrderUpdateField>" | spath
| eval OrderFacts=mvindex('OrderUpdateField.OrderFacts',0), OrderUpdateValue=mvindex('OrderUpdateField.OrderUpdateValue',0)
| table OrderFacts OrderUpdateValue
